No problem, anyways fix is now available <a href="http://community.pointui.com/topic/suitevgaqvga-adrenaline-suite-v2-coming-soon#post-36434">here</a> and works on all screen resolutions. Let me know if there are still speed issues so I can debug further if needed... Norrin

@pilatus: Actually, I have removed the Mini-Calendar slider and Weather slider and its back to its blazing fast speed again with no need to even disable/enable things just the sliders alone were the culprit (should've known from my Sonic MyStatus experience, oh well). So I'll upload the fix in the next hour or so... Norrin

@partha_rc: My WP7-Styled applet does not accurately represent Microsoft's true WP7 feel nor does it do it justice. Then again we all have our own unique tastes and I respect that. For me at first glance WP7 did not look like much, but after seeing it in action I was impressed by the simplicity and polish, which I can attest I was not able to fully convey with this applet. For me with my slower device WP7 style is such a draw as it uses very little or extremely reduced complex/texture heavy graphics so speed is a plus. I compare it to say traditional interior design w/ very ornate decor and large furniture vs. modern style design like in Europe which is more minimalist style with simple lines without overpowering colors or textures or 70's decor couch vs. a Michael Graves chair. I appreciate your comment on the subject though... I do wish Microsoft did not just rehash their Zune HD style for WP7 like iPhone did with iPod and iPad and come up with something more unique.

@pilatus: With regards to "looks" do you mean specfifc graphics/icons not being clear looking and/or alignment issues or just overall look? Speed issue is due to the Mini-Calendar slider, just like with Hydrogen digiclock. The next release will have most process and/or graphics heavy functions like this, weather, and various monitors optional so you can choose to enable/disable things to your liking performance-wise. For example instead of using Mini-Cal slider it will focus on Calcium applet instead. Norrin

VGA-version: looks are ok, but homescreen speed is problem again.... I got to figure out what is causing this, because it is not usable this way on my diamond...

@all, Is this what Microsoft Windows System 7 will look like? If so, I am highly unimpressed. I feel we could have expected Microsoft to come up with a better interface than groups of blue rectangles. There are so many wonderful interfaces (e.g. those developed by HTC for their Windows Mobile phones, even for WM 5 or 6) that Microsoft could have taken inspiration from. Our own Pointsense is a thousand times better looking than this. partha_rc

QVGA users: Final QVGA WP7-beta version available for download <a href="http://community.pointui.com/topic/suitevgaqvga-adrenaline-suite-v2-coming-soon#post-36434">here</a>. See Post #8 for details and instructions. As always let me know what issues you run into... Final VGA beta will be uploaded later... FYI, these final beta versions will include the full Adrenaline Suite V2 that I am running as well. So hopefully any issues you were having is resolved, like Calendar days not showing up. Thanks, Norrin

Well, Thanks G - My phone still freezes. What I meant about my last sentence was: Thank you for fixing the tile for appointment. Now the Appointment tile changes the size when you have more lines. So this is a smart move. Did you like my custom changes to scrolling?

All: Here's some screenshots of new WP7 Applet-build, which adds min-calendar slider, phone profile status, battery/signal meters, connection status icons, next alarm icon, and customizeable fave app clickhold App tile function (you can also change text&icon)... I will upload final QVGA beta which is a bit slower later today. Final release build will allow you turn off various functions (meters, profiles, calendar slider, google news, etc.) to speed things up to your liking, but I just wanted a final test run to find other bugs I may have missed like the add contacts function and the like. Thanks! I am very close and only need to complete the Weather slider before releasing final build for all screens... Norrin

@jebise I believe the latest beta of sp2 (0.83 beta) fixes this problem by disabling the album art feature. Check it out here: <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556885" rel="nofollow">http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556885</a>

Hey nimche, ok, i will make the "topbar" customizable, but next just without background(that's what you mean i think). 1)will add this screen in the "using" section!... 2)have to look where PointUI saves this info, then i'll take it from the standard! but what white background do you get in the app tile? at first it should show the icon but i will try to change the icon to one of your own(so you can chooser a bigger and nicer one) what do you mean with your last sentence? <blockquote>I have to give it to you for fixing the Appointment Tile, which expands now as you have more Appointments.</blockquote> greetz

Nimche — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:46:11 +0000

Great work,. I would like to comment. While I know that you like to have this customizable at the end but I wouldn't put a top bar there. I think haveing floating obejcts on the screen is nice with out any boundaries. These are some errores that I didn't report before but it should be a simple fix. 1) When you go to caontacts, if you push on +folder, you will get an error. 2) In the message section, I would like to see that phone registers my option to filter messages. ie. I would like to only see new messages but everytime I run the Pointui, my settings is gone.(this happenes only in the applet) And I do like the Apps function and Tile. Its smart but the icons are too small and I hate their white background.(I know that is not an option) Awesome work G, I have to give it to you for fixing the Appointment Tile, which expands now as you have more Appointments. Cheers

But my main issue is, i tried using it with samsung touchplayer and it did not work so i installed sp2 0.82 beta everything works fine until i close sp2 and if later i open it again. The issue is i have "save last played song" enabled in sp2 settings and if the player gets closed it saaves the song somehow on the widget. I can still use the widget and everything and everything works as normal, but if i click the cdbox it goes back to the same song when it was closed. That is my main issue the widget saves the session and dose not let it go or change until a soft reset. I have found a fix and that to disable "last played item in sp2" is there a better solution?

Pointsence is just great, somethings are a little slow with refresh rate like when i enable bluetooth it enables right away but the device icon dose not change for like a minute. But my main issue is, i tried using it with samsung touchplayer and it did not work so i installed sp2 0.82 beta everything works fine until i close sp2 and if later i open it again. The issue is i have "save last played song" enabled in sp2 settings and if the player gets closed it saaves the song somehow on the widget.

NorrinHarlock — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 22:18:53 +0000

@azngl: Glad it works now! Yes, but you will need to manually edit the Sulfur.cs file with Notepad or some other editor. Look for code below... void ShowMedia() { Process.Start("\\Windows\\wmplayer.exe"); } Just change process.start to point to your player of the choice. I will make this configurable in the next release, so you can choose via Home2 file explorer windows instead. Norrin

It is all working great! I think it was because of some of my pictures, they were too big I think. A little question, can I link the album tile to another program than Windows Media Player?
